Round Table
Marco Cl.
- Gaudi
- added specific exit code for corrupted files (Markus, implemented the trigger of the incident)
- few more improvements on CMake configuration (e.g. allow for use in the nightlies)
- finalizing the release, while waiting for LCGCMT 64b
- Modified the "tag package" web interface to edit the CMake configuration file too.
- Committed CMake configuration to LHCb and planning Lbcom, Rec and Brunel by the end of the week (including some fixes to warnings).
- Will add a hook to disconnect from databases in DetCond, to allow for the 'late forking' implemented by Nathalie.
Joel
- Using MySQL on demand service for Dirac (instead of the custom instance).
Ben
- Released LbScripts v7r3 (as production).
- We have requests to run SLC5 binaries on SLC6 hosts (it works for gcc43, but it does not with gcc46... it requires a hack in LCGCMT tarball)
- Profiling memory of Stripping with latest RootCnv: 3GB -> 2.5GB (to be confirmed)
Illya
- Problem with Oracle ONLINE DB: '&' leaked in an XML strings
- fixed all the problematic rows
- Clara added code to sanitize XML before storing it in the DB.
Liang
- New tag.
- New SQLDDDB release planned for this week to release new scripts.
